![]() | From Beyond the GraveMovie Review From Beyond the Grave - The Film That Will Make You Rethink Shopping at Thrift Stores Have you ever thought about buying a vintage item and worrying that it might be cursed? No? Well, after watching From Beyond the Grave, you might start thinking twice before haggling with an antique dealer who looks as sinister as Peter Cushing. This little gem of British horror takes us through an anthology of tales that feel like episodes of The Twilight Zone, but with that unmistakable ‘70s touch—questionable fashion choices, homemade special effects, and actors delivering performances with the enthusiasm of someone paying off...

![]() | Burnt OfferingsMovie Review Based on the novel of the same name by Robert Marasco. A slowly building gothic nightmare, the film is distinguished by an oppressive atmosphere that develops with a slow but inexorable pace. The terror does not come in the form of sudden jump scares, but through a growing tension and a sense of inevitable doom. The house seems to absorb the vitality of its inhabitants, and the mystery that surrounds it becomes increasingly disturbing. A stellar cast and memorable performances, Karen Black is perfect in the role of the mother, who goes from loving and caring to completely subjugated by the influence of the house. Oliver...

![]() | Killer Klowns from Outer SpaceMovie Review Killer Klowns from Outer Space it is a film made with little means but with great ingenuity by the Chiodo brothers. A mix of horror, thriller and science fiction that intrigues, disturbs and entertains. Despite being a b-movie, it pays homage to more famous films in fact the killer clowns are very reminiscent of "It" by Stephen King. The plot is simple: an alien spaceship shaped like a circus tent lands in Crescent Cove, from which clowns descend and capture the inhabitants to feed on them. Memorable is the scene in which one of them enchants the crowd with Chinese shadows, finally transforming them into a dinosaur that devours... Read More |
![]() | NosferatuMovie Review Remake of the 1922 German silent expressionist film classic "Nosferatu the Vampyre", loosely based on the novel Dracula (1897) by Irish writer Bram Stoker. For me, who saw the 1979 cult movie "Nosferatu: Phantom der Nacht", the comparison with this new version is inevitable, which did not excite me. The aforementioned was certainly much simpler and poorer in its sober and perhaps even a little squalid staging and focused a lot on the perverse and disturbing charm of the protagonists, the beautiful Isabelle Adjani and the damned Klaus Kinski. Here, however, the exact opposite happens, the film is nominated... Read More |
![]() | ImmaculateMovie Review Religious horror without demoniacs or exorcisms, played by the new American movie star Sydney Sweeney who also produces here and is the fulcrum of this film... she is perfect in the role with her angelic face that however in the ending, now a cult of this film, is transfigured thus becoming a great "scream queen" almost on the level of Isabelle Adjani in "Possession". |
![]() | Scream VIMovie Review Sixth chapter of "Scream", and I would say it would be better to end it here, so as not to bore and above all disappoint those, like me, who strongly loved the film created in 1996 by the genius of Wes Craven, already a cult author with "Nightmare". That film invented a real genre of its own, mixing together slasher, teen movie and black comedy, and became a cult object for the millennial generation and beyond. Returning to this last episode that moves the story from the province to the big city in an attempt to make itself more fascinating in the eyes of teenagers, it is perhaps the worst of the entire saga, 2...

![]() | Willy's WonderlandMovie Review Nicolas Cage in this film does not say a word from beginning to end, making him even more convincing, the film is completely focused on him, and I say fortunately because it is certainly not a masterpiece, but something original with crude humor, vaguely perverse and in its own way intelligent. A great and safe entertainment for teenagers this B movie where we find a lot of action, splatter, the Final Girl and the hero / anti-hero, in a disturbing setting, with terrifying but also funny monsters, all reminiscent of the low budget films of the 80s. The splatter characterized by liters of blood and rudimentary special effects... Read More |
![]() | Late Night with the DevilMovie Review Late Night with the Devil by directors Cameron and Colin Cairnes uses a retro TV show setting to create an unnerving atmosphere that draws viewers into a slowly intensifying horror. The film’s attention to detail, from the 70s grainy footage style to shifting between black-and-white and color, sets the tone perfectly. The clever cinematography immerses audiences as if they’re watching a live broadcast unraveling in real time, a technique that intensifies the suspense, especially during the eerie "commercial breaks." David Dastmalchian’s portrayal of Jack Delroy is a highlight, conveying both desperation and a... Read More |
![]() | La ReliquiaMovie Review Disturbing Rosemary's Baby in southern sauce, "La reliquia" (seen online at the Fantafestival in Rome) is a successful insight into the practices and rituals of southern Italy. The theme is the atmosphere is very interesting and original, but the narrative suffers from the short duration. The cast of actors is exceptional, mostly comedians, but perfectly in part in histrionic (Paolantoni) or slimy (Rizzo) roles. The beautiful and evocative photography creates a dark atmosphere. Effective direction. Note of... Read More |
![]() | Gretel & HanselMovie Review Anyone familiar with the original versions of classic fairy tales like “Hansel and Gretel” already knows that they have lots of horror movie potential. As a rule though, most attempts to capture these tales on film tend to miss the mark. It’s clear from the conspicuous reversal of the titular names that Gretel & Hansel hopes to distinguish itself from the rest of the pack right from the get-go, but does it actually do the job, or are you better off spending 90 minutes of your time on some other film? ...
